BuffaloBillyG Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Quality addition. A bit surprised they didn't push for a 2 year deal so we have someone under contract leading to next season at DT. Perhaps they did and Poona pushed for a "prove it" style. We will never likely know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pennies on the dollar for the expiring contract. 1 year of solid Ed play is worth hanging on to him IMO. And maybe we sign a deal with him in the meantime. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While there's sense in what you're saying in a vacuum - the concept doesn't make sense. Why would we voluntarily make ourselves worse at the position? If he's as expendable as many make him out to be, why would a team give up a Draft pick, 10m in cap space, and no guarantee they have him beyond one year? Ed Oliver was never going anywhere and especially not now. Post Draft with teams having filled their needs and low on funds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 9 minutes ago, BillsFanForever19 said: Never happening. Wasn't happening during the Draft. Isn't happening now. This is a fan made up idea like Edmunds was last year. Anytime he's brought up around Beane he talks about wanting to re-sign him. He'll either get extended before the year or he'll be a FA after this season. But he's "definitely" not going anywhere. He's our best 3T and there isn't a better one available out there. Teams don't trade for guys with 1 year left on their contract with a 10m cap hit. Anything is possible in the NFL. But you're living in a fantasy world thinking it's a definite. Sign him then.

Seems like this is a defensive player that the Bills had their eye on since the early stages of free agency. Either way I like the deal.

SCBills Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Speedy athletic attacking linebackers make A LOT of sense behind a DT room consisting of Daquan Jones and Poona Ford. What a homerun of a signing!! Let's gooo!! 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wiz Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 12 minutes ago, mjt328 said: All the people pushing to trade Ed Oliver... What kind of return do you think the Bills can get? The problem is that the Bills (from what I've heard and read) typically only keep 4 DT's on the roster. Moving Oliver anytime soon would be a bad move if any of the 4 DT's currently on the roster know that. Hopefully they add another DT to compete with the 5 they now have unless they can get something amazing for Oliver right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Re: the Oliver talk, perhaps he plays much better with a big 1T next to him, similar to how Roueseau was MUCH better when Miller was in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
